Cyclists vs Food
This cracks me up. I’d love to see this happening at one of the major tours. I can see it now – Domino’s sponsors the USA team, has Domino’s delivered during one of the stages and they eat it on the bike. HAHAH Cyclists vs. Food
Bike Shaped Pasta for Charity
While tooling around the North Shore in Massachusetts, I stumbled across a really cute concept. The owners of a small butcher shop were raising money for a bike ride charity by selling bike shaped pasta. If you need to carb load for a bike ride, why not carb load on bike shaped pasta? Would it…

Looking for something sexier to eat? Love your spinach and other greens but wanna get SPICY? Try mustard greens!

Cluck Cluck Yuck!
So before I had my eating epiphany, I really WAS trying to make an effort to eat more at home, and not just Lean Cuisine frozen meals. Hey, laugh all you want – as a single chick, Lean Cuisines are pretty awesome and convenient. When they were on sale for $2 each, I would leave…
Invisible Thyroid is Invisible
I’m not gonna lie – it’s been a rough week for me. After losing weight and having my body go askew, I’m still dealing with the repercussions. The doctor had me go down to 100mcg of synthroid about a week ago. This week, I am a ZOMBIE. ZOMBIE! I can barely move, I don’t want…

Bottom line: HOLY SH!T THERE IS SUGAR EVERYWHERE! Wanting to get INSIDE ME. Get me all jiggy and jiggly. Sugar is a secret…
I’m pretty sure doctors are just vampires

Recipe: Lamb Stew aka Animal Sacrifice #3
I am on a rampage – if you are a vegetarian or animal lover, you may want to click away from this blog. Ever since getting a pressure cooker, I have decided to cook a new animal in it every week. So far I’ve made cow, veggies* and pig. *Veggies are totally an animal. Especially…
Carnitas aka Shredded Pork Soft Tacos aka YUM
My adventures in pressure cooking continue with a new animal finding its way into my pot of doom. The animal last night was ‘pig’. The part of animal was ‘pig shoulder’ aka ‘Boston butt’ aka ‘butt’ aka ‘oink’. This is considered a ‘tough’ piece of meat and requires either a long time in a slow…
Cat-a-tooie
FYI I now have a whole site dedicated to low carb meals over at LowCarbKitty.com! I attempted to make ratatouille the other day in the pressure cooker. It came out OK – I ate it over cauliflower-rice. I’ll post the recipe here in case you want to try it, but note my modifications. Took the…
